All good ideas, but you do contridict yourself a little. You say takes too much time going threw the existing posts, (of which I agree, it really does take forever) and to start new threads, but you also say to reply to posts to get a good thread going.
I'm never very impressed with posts that somebody made up basing their information on wikipedia. Ususally, if I want to study a subject, I just google it, and check out the numberous web sites that come up. Random information on subjects I may not give a flying flip about isn't going to get me to adding replys. And if you just type up information, what is there to reply to unless you want to refute the information?
I personally like topics that are more or less based on opinions, like what do you think about..... so that an actual discusion may take place rather than read a post that is more like listening to a teacher in school. More fun that way.

The first point of the topic start is, that it costs the least time to start a topic.
The second point of the topic start deals with the situation that a nice member of the forum is found who wants to help to earn myCents.
If this nice member is found lots of myCents can be earnt by responding to the posts of that nice member. And the helpfull member can reply again.
This way the thread grows rapidly in an agreeable way and the posts add to the myCents in the credit accounts very fast.
